The action continues in the UEFA Women’s Champions League as Barcelona Women and Eintracht Frankfurt Women square off at the Estadi Johan Cruyff on Thursday.
The Spanish powerhouse head into the game fresh off the back of clinching the Supercopa de España Femenina title and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.
Barcelona secured a third consecutive Supercopa de España Femenina title last saturday when as they dismantled Levante 7-0 in the final at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque.
Jonatan Giráldez’s side have now won 23 consecutive matches across all competitions, a run which sees them sit top of the Spanish Women’s top-flight table with a nine-point cushion over second-placed Levante.
Barcelona now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they have enjoyed a near-perfect group-stage campaign, scoring 21 goals and conceding just one, as they look to retain the title.
Having kicked off the Champions League campaign with much promise, Frankfurt find themselves on the brink of an early exit as they sit third in Group A, three points behind second-placed Benfica.
Katharina Kiel’s side secured a 2-1 victory over Rosengard in November’s group-opener, before picking up just one point in their subsequent three outings.
Frankfurt, who are currently fourth in the Women’s Bundesliga table, head into Thursday’s clash off the back of a goalless draw against Ado Den Haag in the second of their two mid-season friendly outings.
